Lol a friend just told me that she got blocked by a Kirk supporter because she said we need gun control to prevent gun deaths. PICK A LANE GUN NUTS.

These are calls for mass political violence, against all Democrats. They openly call for the bombing of "Democrat" cities and for the jailing or killing of Democratic politicians. They are from some of the most influential voices in right-wing politics. Will anyone say anything?

Working themselves up about how the left is being ✨SO MEAN✨ about Kirk’s death is the perfect way to avoid addressing the actual fact that the right caused Kirk’s death.

The reaction from the right once again shows that like all cringy edgelords, they simply cannot handle the consequences of their own behavior. Stop voting for shit and then complaining when shit happens to you personally.

Lol these jackasses imagining "power" in a label describing the beliefs and behavior of villains and scum. "Nazi" is not a natural state, it is a coward's world view, the thoughts and actions of no-accountability losers who blame their failures and shortcomings on anyone but their own sorry selves.

It's weird when your own aggression and disgust becomes a child's game. I wonder if I'm traumatizing them and they are trying to process this through play, or if they're simply learning, in a kid-friendly way, how to handle true evil?

My middle son, blowing up Creepers in Minecraft: "That's what happens to N*zis!" My older son, Matrix fighting with the water in the splash pad: "That what happens to N*zis!" Both kids, laughing and whipping throw pillows at the wall (don't ask, its summer) "That's what happens to N*zis!"

Heidi Heilig @heidiheilig.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

I'll be quite honest, as an older millennial I have no idea how to raise my children in this day and age. I've had several (hopefully age appropriate???) conversations with them about what's going on, and subsequently they've invented a game I can only describe as "That's What Happens To N*zis!"

I truly and sincerely hope that every single ICE goon is unmasked, photographed, and named, so they can be shunned by family and former friends, spat on by strangers, refused service by businesses, and denied entry at every threshold for the rest of their miserable lives.

The ICE camps are concentration camps. They should be called concentration camps. It is, of course, important to distinguish between concentration camps and death camps, but also, I am not sure we will know when or if we undergo the transition from concentration camps into death camps.

It's awkward going, "Hey, I fell off the face of the earth but I have a book coming out tomorrow if you're interested" but... Hey, I have a book coming out tomorrow. It's a MG fantasy inspired by 1001 Nights with a Blasian heroine. Might be fun? Might distract from the horrors?
